Chapter 19

As soon as the message was sent, a reply came instantly, and the duo agreed to meet in 20 minutes.

Upon seeing the immediate response from the other party, Rachel could not help but wonder if he had been waiting for her message all along.

Noticing her distracted state, Mary asked casually, “What are you going to do about the Smith family?”

“I will resign,” Rachel replied decisively.

After all, she had nothing to hold onto in the Smith family.

Now that she wanted to cut ties with them, she would make sure to see it through because she was not the kind to procrastinate.

Hearing her response, Mary secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, she had been worried that her friend would feel guilty in the end.

Over the years, as an outsider, she had witnessed the extent of Rachel’s dedication to Louis, and it was precisely thanks to her assistance that the Smith family had risen to their current position. In other words, without her help, the flourishing Smith family would not be able to maintain their success.

While Mary was lost in thought, her phone rang again. She took a look at the caller ID, and a faint hint of derision appeared in her eyes.

She hung up the phone without any hesitation. She realized that she had underestimated Louis’s persistence.

He was eager to meet with someone from the Green family to

understand the reasons behind their fund withdrawal. In the meantime, he also wanted to persuade them to invest again.

He wondered if Rachel had interfered and taken the opportunity to retaliate against him.

At the thought of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

“Take some rest. I will go talk to Rachel,” he said.

“I will go with you.” Olivia grabbed his hand and explained without waiting for him to refuse, “Rachel doesn’t have any relatives here. We should take extra care.”

He hesitated for half a second before he nodded. “When you see her

later, don’t take anything she says to heart. Trust me. I will protect you and never let you get hurt again.”

Through his words, one could tell that he already viewed Rachel as a malicious presence.

“I understand.” Olivia blinked cheekily. She then stood on tiptoe and left a quick, gentle peck on his lips.
